> Ive recently upgraded my Win Me machine to Win 2000, it then restarted, i
went through the time zone and keyboard selection process, it rebooted
again but this time it hangs at the windows logo, (with the blue status bar
at the bottom) so i tried a full clean install, but the same happened again,
i tried a fresh install on 'two other' hard drives but it continues to hang
at the same point! It leads me two think it is a hardware problem as ive
tried 3 hard drives with fresh installs, has anyone else had this problem?
please help!

have a 650 machine with 128 running win2K!
